Which exhaust system for that non-ricer sound?
I would like to invest into a complete exhaust system and I know that there are a lot of options available on the market. It's difficult to get a feel for the tone of the exhaust my listening to Youtube videos. I'm looking for performance obviously and would like add a deeper tone to the car. Somewhat like a Mustang. Is this possible?
I get an erection every time I hear this Vettes exhaust.

If you're wanting the sound of a Mustang, get a Mustang. You need a V8 to get the sound you want. I don't think any cat back exhaust on the Market for the TL's sound "ricey" Some may look ricey, such as the Greddy (that's my opinion). Our cars sound great with any catback, nice deep throaty sound.

Yeah it sounds different (and better I think) in person.

OP, the ATLP setup is definitely a quality exhaust, I have it on my base & LOVE IT! It won't sound as deep or rumbly as a V8, but you'll get a nice deep tone and if you throw in the Magnaflow resonator that's offered by Heeltoe (the dealer to buy it from), the drone is cut down significantly. The ATLP quad exhaust is sick...many members here have it. Good luck with whatever you choose.

Nice. Since I am maybe in the market for a new exhaust (apparently local PD didn't like the sound of XLR8 v1), that video of the ATLP is nice!
@ CLtotheTL - is that resonated or non-res?

all this talk about Xrl8 and ATLP and with videos......
I guess i will rep the RV6 crew and post some videos as well
IMHO by far best sound I have heard coming from a UA7...but thats just my
Enjoy!!!
RV6 different scenarios!!!
and some bonus footage after its been tuned!!!
go to around 26sec of video!!!
Ok so if you still not convinced on RV6 or any other ones in here then go get a V8 and call it a day!! Good luck!!

I went custom and have never looked back, I love my exhaust but for other it might be ricey or to loud 
but you can never go wrong with rv6's set up.

ATLP catback without resonator, RV6 long tube J-Pipe that deletes 3rd cat. I had this before and LOVED IT. You will NEVER get that sound from a TL
I recently got rid of a 2010 2SS/RS Camaro LS3 with muffler deletes, That car SOUNDED AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!
With the exhaust I suggest your TL will sound more like a Ferrari.

Thanks for the awesome videos Boston 
That exhaust costs BIG $$$.
I would if I could.
My next Type-S will have the RV6 long tube J-Pipe with ATLP quad catback without resonator. I think its close to your sound, and good enough for me Thanks Again

All motor
As long as your resonator is large enough, you shouldn't have any issues with "rice" sound. The J series motor sounds very good with a catback, and with a full catless exhaust as well. You may experience minimal rasp with a full catless system, but I like a smidge of rasp, gives it an aggressive feel.
You will never get the V8 rumble from a V6. Down low it may sound similar, but once you get up in the RPMs it will never sound the same.
I think the best setup I've heard thus far (I haven't heard all of them) is on Youtube. Search TL Type S ATLP exhaust. It's a member here with full ATLP exhaust, Vibrant resonator, and RV6 PCDs. It sounds exotic, almost like an M5 (seriously). Obviously it doesn't sound like a V10 M5, but it has an exotic tone which sounds similar. I think my exhaust sounds great too. It's got a deep, angry, aggressive tone and when I punch it near a divider I get the chills. But I may be bias
